BOGARX. 
Personal  Notes. 

The  Bogarts. 

ihe  Bogarts. — ivo  I'amilies  of  the  Bogarts  came  with  the  pioneers,  Gilbert 
aoi  Abraham  his  son.    i'hey  were  from  I'apaan  on  the  Hudson  River,  and  were  of 
the  i^ickerbockers.    ihey  settled  in  the  fourth  ccncession  north  of  Hay  Bay. 
Gilbert  must  have  been  an  old  man  at  the  time,  and  is  said  to  have  lived  to 
be  over  a  hundred  years  old.    His  son  Abraham  married  a  lazier  and  she  lived 
to  be  lOii  years.    I'hey  reared  a  lar^  anl  respectable  fairiily,  but  none  of  the 
name  now  reside  in  the  township.   Lewis  L.  Bogart  was  chaizmai   of   the  Genten- 
ial  Celebration  Committee  in  Adolphustown  in  1884.    ihree  sons,  David,  Abraham 
and  Gilbert,  became  large  lumbermen  and  important  business  men  in  Belleville. 
Gilbert  Bogart,  for  forty  yeajrs  postmaster  at  Napanee,  is  a  great  grandson 
of  Gilbert  first.   So  is  Dr.  David  P.  Bogart,  ex-toyor  of  TOiitby.    So  is  the 
Rev.  Dr.   G*  lu.  Meacham,  now  a  well  known  Canadian  llissionary  in  Japan.    The 
SOBS  of  Abraham  were  all  successful  business  men  and  the  descendants  are 
widely  scattered  over  the  Province,    ihey  were  Itethodists.   One  of  the  sons  of 
Abraham  was  among  the  nine  young  people  drowned  near  the  old  Itethodist  church 
in  18iy.

1633  the  first  church  was  erected  on  the  island  of  Manhatten.  It 

^uilt  on  Broad  Street  &  was  a  small, frail  wooden  building*  The 
irst  Ijominie  was  the  Rev.  Everardus  Bogardus.  He  came  frou  Holland 


7I^nH  with  the  celebrated  Wanter  Van  Twiller,  The  Dutch  &  the  Huguenots, 
^^ijpl   as  well  as  the  Pilgrims, brought  the  church, the  schoolmaster, &  their 


fftK 


'JU.   bibles  with  them.  They  erected  a  dwelli^jg  for  the  Rev.  Mr.  Bogardus 
S^lLJ^to  reside  in.  This  was  the  first  parsonage  built  in  America*  This  first 
^JS*  minister  in  Mew  Amsterdam  met  with  a  sad  end.  After  spending  some  years 
^,mS    in  the  new  world, in  returning  to  his  native  land, he, with  eighty-one 
0»Jk,r«>iOthers,was  lost  off  the  coast  of  Wales.  The  Bogarts  are  probably 
\f'  lNj  descended  from  this  pioneer  minister, he  having  left  children  behind 
r~2^  him  in  America, or  some  ne€ir  coniE  ction.  On  the  south  side  of  Hay  Bay 
TJJ/J'^  lived  Andrew  &  John  Embury, «  the  first  family  of  the  Bogarts  of  Canada, 
^fllaj descendants  of  the  first  Moravian  minister  to  America.   .  0  /^i. 

I63.1he  Bogardus  family  tie  in  with  the  Rev.  Everardus  <t>ogardus  who 
married  in  1638  a  Dutch  woman, Annette  Janil  Webber, born  in  Holland. 
The  Bogardus  family  consisted  of  William, Cornelius, Jonas  k   Peter.

224.Anneke  Jans  was  bom  in  Holland  about  1600  &  died  in  Albany  March 
19th,  1663*  Her  first  husband  was  Roeloff  Jansen,who  died  about  1634-* 
In  1638  she  married  the  Reverend  Everardus  Bogardus.  After  his  death, 
in  1647,Anneke  Jans  owned  the  Bogardus-Ten  Broek  House, formerly  at 
Albany, Kew  York. 

171.Abrah€un  L.  Bogsirt  is  a  descendant  of  one  of  the  oldest  Dutch  families 
on  this  continent.  As  early  as  1689  we  find  one  Jacob  Vanden  Bogart, 
with  others, petitioning  the  good  people  of  Albany, &  later, 1750'-60, the 
name  of  Bogart  appears  in  connection  with  the  census  returns  of  New 
York  city.  The  Bogarts  came  from  Jappan  town, near  Kew  York, to  Canada 
on  the  conclusion  of  the  war, with  a  number  of  other  U.E,  Loyalists, & 
settled  on  the  4th  concession  of  Adolphustown, where  many  desceAdants 
of  the  family  still  reside, his  mother  living  to  the  great  age  of  102 
years.  Abraham  L.  Bogart  was  born  in  Aaolphustown,&  has  resided  in 
Belleville  for  a  number  of  years, removing  to  Hun^erford, where  he  owns 
a  large  tract  of  valuable  land.  He  is  principally  engaged  in  building 
&  farming, &  erected  some  time  ago  at  considerable  expense  a  saw  mill 
on  the  splendid  water  privilege  of  -creek, where  large  quantities  of 
raw  material  have  been  prepared  for  the  market. 


22^ .The  Bogart  family  set  sail  from  Amsterdam  in  1663  on  a  ship  called 
"Spotted  Cow", to  settle  on  Long  Island.  Jan  Louwe  Bogart  took  up 
residence  in  the  town  of  New  Harlem, where  he  was  one  of  the  thirty 
original  patentees, named  as  a  member  of  the  Corporation  of  the  Town 
of  Kew  Harlem.  He  was  chosen  as  a  magistrate  in  1675*  Shirtly  after 
his  arrival  in  Kew  Amsterdam  the  colony  passed  into  British  hands, 
to  become  New  York.  Later  on, the  family  moved  a  short  way  up  the 
iiuQson  River  to  the  little  town  of  Tappan.  Similarly  the  Dorlands, 
represented  by  Jan  Gerritz  Dor 1 ant, arrived  even  earlier, in  1652, when 
the  well  known  Peter  Stuyvessant  was  still  the  governor  of  the  colony. 
Jan  Dorlant  took  up  residence  in  the  town  of  Brooklyn, then  spelled 
"Breuckli^n". 

The  Bogarts  came  to  Adolphustown.  Gilbert  J^ogart  was  not  in 
the  army  &  had  to  file  a  claim  before  one  of  the  various  commissions, 
in  order  to  receive  land  in  Canada. 

Proceedings  of  the  Loyalist  Commissioners, Montreal, 1788.  Claim  of 
Gilbert  Bogart, late  of  Orange  County. 

He  was  at  Sorel  in  '83*  Is  a  native  of  America  lived  at  Goshen 
when  Rebellion  broke  out.  Never  joined  the  Rebels.  Came  to  i^iew  York 
in  1777.  Continued  at  ^^ew  York.  Served  in  the  Engineer's  Department. 
He  sometimes  went  out  as  a  guide, particularly  when  Major  Blowwett,a 
Reb«l  Major, was  taken.  Continued  at  New  York  until  evacuation.  Now 
lives  at  Bay  of  Quint jt,
